Answer: B

Explanation:

During polymerization of nucleotides to form nucleic acids, the hydroxyl group on the phosphate group attaches to the 3’ carbon of a sugar of one nucleotide to form an ester bond to the phosphate of another nucleotide. The reaction forms a phosphodiester linkage and eliminates a water molecule.

The DNA strands generally runs from 5 prime to 3 prime direction.

Which answer choice does not contain at least one cellular process inhibited by antibiotics?
USPshnik [31]
<span>Antibiotics work by selectively targeting the reproduction or growth of specific bacteria cells and by not attacking human DNA. Antibiotics do not, or should not, target and affect human DNA gyrases, although they should target the specific bacteria growth. The host, (human) DNA needs to remain unharmed while the bacteria does not replicate.</span>

Explain how the fossil record indicates a long history of changing life forms.
sergey [27]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Fossil: is preserved pre historic life form present under ground at high pressure for a long time.Animal die and burried under layers of sediments.

It provides evidence about the history of life on earth. It also shows  different groups of organisms, including species,that have changed over time. Because the formation of any fossil depends upon the precise combination of conditions.

As the world changes, plants and animals change with time . From fossils we compare organisms of modern time with ancient , the species we see today are very different from species that lived in the past. Thus, the fossil record can be used to show that organisms changed to meet new condition.

Which pathway is affected by an inherited mutation in the atm gene?
Katena32 [7]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

photoreactivation

reactivation repair pathway

nucleotide excision repair pathway

UV repair pathway

p53 repair pathway

Answer:

p53 repair pathway

Explanation:

ATM gene or ataxia telangiectasia-mutated is a gene which codes for the protein kinase involved in the DNA double-stranded break.

The DNA double-stranded break is repaired easily as the protein kinase is recruited to the site of the break where it allows the DNA repair machinery to repair the DNA.

The gene also controls the cell growth therefore this gene is important to study cancer.  Since the p53 protein is a suppressor protein which if mutated is repaired by the ATM gene and if the gene becomes mutated then the p53 repair pathway is affected.

Thus, p53 repair pathway is the correct answer.
